This is a list of resources, such as dedicated web sites or apps where you can post or pick up used items for free (freecycling). Some are country specific, some are available or have groups in several countries.
This list is open for suggestions and/or comments on the resources. Make a comment, say what country (and if necessary, state and/or region), and post links to the website or relevant app/play store according to the below formats.
Rules: No suspicious links, NSFW links or scam/phishing/malware. The list will be curated, if need be.
